I have a 1.6 GLS Automatic Matrix. No matter how I try, I just cannot bring fuel consumption down. Most of my driving is in horrendous city traffic in Manila and I get 6 kms. to a liter. On the highway, I can bring this up to 14 to 15 kms to a liter as long as I do not exceed 100 for long stretches. My unit has a catalytic converter so I cannot touch that until my warranty runs out in one more year (I have a May 2003 model).

Chrome on headlamp surround is beginning to bubble, which is a problem one owner mentioned in this forum, and which I will bring to attention of my dealer for replacement.
